When Derick heard this, he knew what Jason wanted to do.

He thought, “Those twins hidden in their mother’s womb for three months, unknown to their father, are this guy’s lifelong pain. Every time I see him take out the glass bottle from his placket with sorrow, I wish I could rush up and smash it to pieces. This dagger through the heart has been stabbed into his heart and soul for nearly six years. To pull it out, the only way is if both children are still alive. The quickest way to prove if they are still alive is to see if their mother has given birth normally. If she has, it proves the two children weren’t aborted. Instead, Sophia quietly gave birth to them. If she hasn’t, then this dagger through the heart will remain stuck in Jason forever, and

he won’t find relief for the rest of his life.!

“Yes,” he said. “Wait a moment. I’ll do a CT scan of her uterus to check.”

Jason didn’t respond, which was taken as consent.

He thought, ‘Aaron said he has found the child and is preparing to take his hair samples for a paternity test, asking me to wait a few more days. But I can’t wait any longer. If it can be confirmed now that she has given birth, then the little boy who appeared in the restaurant with her is our son.‘

Derick worked quickly and soon reached a conclusion.

His face lit up with joy as he said excitedly, “Her cervix has dilated fully before. She has likely experienced normal

childbirth.”

Jason suddenly closed his eyes, his body trembling slightly. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

He thought, ‘I knew it. My Sophia is so kind–hearted. How could she ever bring herself to abort our kids?”

“Only the two of us know about this matter,” he said. “Don’t let a third person know.”

“Got it,” Derick said.

“Given her current condition, does she need to be strapped to a steel plate?” Jason asked.

Derick was a little amused.

‘It’s a bone fracture, not a bone break,‘ he thought. ‘It’s not that serious. Just a bit painful.”

“I have a

a bottle of medicine for bruises and injuries,” he said. “It works really well. Apply some on her back and massage appropriately. She’ll recover in a few days.”

With that said, he took out a white porcelain bottle from the medical kit and placed it on the table. Then, he turned around and left.

After Derick left, the huge CT room instantly fell silent.

Jason slowly walked to the bedside and lifted the blanket covering her back. His gaze began to wander along her graceful spine.

There was a large bruise on the left side of her back, and it was slightly swollen. One could tell how hard the impact had been.

He thought, ‘It’s my negligence. If I had noticed the signs at that time, she wouldn’t have suffered like this!

He opened the bottle cap and used a cotton swab to apply the ointment to her flawless and smooth skin. Then, he massaged it gently with his palm.

Sophia slowly regained consciousness.

The moment she opened her eyes, her mind still felt a bit foggy.

When she felt the stinging pain in her back, her awareness fully returned.

She instinctively propped up her elbows, trying to turn over to sit up.

However, just as she moved, her shoulder was pressed back to the bed by a gentle force.

“Sophia, don’t move,” Jason said. “I’m applying medicine for you.”

‘Applying medicine?‘ Sophia thought.

She belatedly realized that her upper body felt chilly. There was only a black shirt hanging over her chest.

Anger spread in her eyes. She struggled again, accidentally tearing the wound on her back. It was so painful that

she fell back.

In fact, she had faintly sensed that her spine had fractured when she was in the cafe.

Later, while performing chest and abdomen compressions on Britney, her back hurt so much that she couldn’t straighten up for a moment, confirming her guess.

“Hiss…”

Jason hurriedly withdrew his hand when he heard her gasp.

“It hurts a lot, right?” he said. “Your back hit the edge of the steps. causing a fracture. Bear with it for a while. You’ll be fine after the medicine is applied.”

The corners of Sophia’s stiff mouth twitched, revealing a mocking smile. Her eyes were bone– chilling.

“Do you think this little bit of pain can break me?” she said. “I’ve experienced pain that is worse, and it was you

who pushed me.”

A trace of pain flashed across Jason’s eyes.

He had slapped her several times, each time causing her to fall to the ground.

At that time, she was still pregnant and her heart was severely failing.

He said, “Sophia…”

Sophia tilted her head slightly and caught the pain in his eyes. She wanted to provoke him again and make him feel a greater sense of heartache.

“The heaviest blow was when you slapped me on the stairs,” she said. “I fell hard to the ground, and my abdomen happened to hit the edge of the steps.”
